ABSTRACT
When scientists add their findings to the mix, they do not put an end to politics; they add new ingredients to the collective process.
(Latour 1998, p. 208)
Sustainable governance of coastal and marine environments is necessary given that most of the world’s population lives adjacent to the coast and many people rely on coastal and ocean resources for their livelihoods
